Green Tires? In Middletown NY there are a few examples of green tires. While not tied to St. Patricks Day, technically the definition of a "green tire" is a tire that has been assembled on a tire production line but not yet molded. The green tire after assembly goes to the steam pressure molding process.

However there are green tires that have been made! While not very popular, white rubber can be colored green and made into tires. However without carbon black these tires may be missing some of the properties the carbon black can give them to enhance durability and stability. Michelin and other manufacturers have made green colored tires even for bicycles. These Michelin tires seen here are a very high quality product.

The green tires we offer are called green because they use more environmentally conscious ingredients and offer low rolling resistance saving energy. See www.dolsontire.com for more
